+18 Warning Mature Content - Reader discretion advised 

A wolfless ward and an illegitimate dragon prince must overcome immeasurable barriers to free themselves from the stigma they have been placed under. 

Abandoned as a child Lily Artemis Wolfman was taken in by the Royal Family of the Wolf Clan only to be treated like a slave, working her mercilessly night and day. 

When her wolf didn't appear, Lily used her only avenue to free herself on the day she became an adult. 

Finding a mate was the last thing Dimitri De Drago` wanted since his family was hell-bent on killing him, but when he came across a strange female amid a massacred village his dragon stirred for the first time at the sight of her.

Turning her away only to find her again caused sparks to fly between the two like they never knew was possible. Facing fatal issues within his Clan, finding his mate came with serious consequences. 

They knew trouble would follow if they stayed together, but their souls demanded each other risking it all for the chance at happiness.

Will their love remain strong through the trials and tribulations they face or will tradition and their families stand in their way of true happiness?

Dran went searching for Lily and Dimitri, figuring they would be in the merchant district after what Lily needed for supplies. Following their scents, once he was in the right place, they weren't too hard to spot as he checked the most popular apothecary on the merchant strip. He saw them walking into a back room, and the door closed behind them. He knew this place had many things for sale, but not every customer was privy to the whole stock. Dran went in, waiting near the potted plants section, admiring the flowers.
